After he assaults one’s senses with a new Transformers film, Michael Bay will follow it up with a producing effort, another take on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Last seen on screen in the animated 2007 film, this new update mixes live-action and motion-capture under the direction of Jonathan Liebesman (Battle: Los Angels, Wrath of the Titans).

After heaps of silly “controversy” when fans were outraged at the origin of our leads, and a fewdelays, our first footage has now landed in the form of a trailer. Are we in for some surprising fun or will it be a late-summer dud? Check it out below for the film starring Megan Fox, Pete Ploszek, Noel Fisher, Jeremy Howard, Alan Ritchson, Danny Woodburn, William Fichtner, Will Arnett, and Whoopi Goldberg.
